Time travel is used to access this game's post-story content. After defeating [[Mordegon]] and holding a memorial service for [[Veronica]], who sacrificed herself to mitigate the destruction caused by the death of [[Yggdrasil]], the party can visit the [[Tower of Lost Time]] in the [[Lost Land]], using the [[Wheel of Time]] to open the door to the tower. There they meet the [[Timekeeper]], a [[Tockle]] who watches over the flow of time in the tower. She shows them [[Time's Sphere]], the crystallization of all that has taken place in [[Erdea]], and informs the party that the only way to restore Veronica is to turn back time to before she died; however, only one person can go, one with the power of the [[Luminary]], and he may never return to the present time. Using the [[Sword of Light]], he strikes Time's Sphere, transporting him to [[Arboria]] before Yggdrasil's death. He then uses the [[Sword of Shadows]] -- obtained from defeating Mordegon in the future -- to kill [[Jasper]] at the [[Heart of Yggdrasil]], as it breaks through his previously impervious barrier. The party later defeats Mordegon again, freeing [[King Carnelian]]. The heroes then go on a quest to obtain the strength needed to destroy the ultimate impending evil known as [[Calasmos]], residing in [[Erdwin's Lantern]].


Although this time travel undoes the devastation experienced in the normal timeline, it also undoes many of the Hero's feats, such as how [[Mia (Dragon Quest XI)|Mia]] and [[Ryu]] are back to their cursed forms. As such, several side-quests open up in all previously visited locations, and the party can return to these characters to peacefully restore them to their normal selves again.
Eventually, the Luminary and his party defeat Calasmos and restore the Timekeeper to her true self, [[Serenica]], and send her back in time to reunite with [[Erdwin]].
